HYPERTENSION Chamberlain College of Nursing NR 508 Case Study • David a 54 yo Caucasian male went to his primary care providers office for his yearly physical. The nurse... came in and took Davids vitals. His blood pressure was 150/92, HR 75, RR 16, 98 kg. His blood pressure was repeated 2 times five minutes apart and the systolic pressure remained <150 and diastolic <90. While discussing the elevated blood pressure, David mentioned to the practitioner that he has been having dizzy spells and headaches off and on for the past 5 months. David works three jobs to support his family. He is a non smoker but admits to having other bad habits like eating fast food on a daily basis and avoiding the gym. Upon assessment the provider notices bilateral lower extremity +1 pitting edema. Davids routine lab work (CBC, CMP, urinalysis) shows all values are within normal limits. There is no past medical history and Davids surgical history includes a tonsillectomy at the age of 4. Hypertension JNC 8 Clinical Guidelines • In the general population <60 years, initiate pharmacologic treatment to lower BP at SBP ≥140 mm Hg and treat to a goal SBP <140 mm Hg. (James et al., 2014) James PA, Oparil S, Carter BL, et al. (2014) Evidence-Based Guideline for the Management of High Blood Pressure in Adults Report From the Panel Members Appointed to the Eighth Joint National Committee (JNC 8). JAMA. 2014;311(5):507–520. doi:10.1001/jama.2013.284427 Hypertension Most commonly prescribed drugs • Thiazides Inhibit reabsorption of Na and Cl ions in distal convoluted tubules in the kidneys • ACE Inhibitors Inhibits the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II • ARBS Prevents angiotensin II from binding to angiotensin II receptors • Beta Blockers Inhibits epinephrine and norepinephrine from binding too beta-adrenoceptors • Calcium Channel Blockers Inhibit Ca+ entry into excitable cells Hypertension Most commonly prescribed drugs • Thiazides- SE include orthostatic hypotension, severe electrolyte imbalances, and dizziness. Remain well hydrated while taking a thiazide diuretic to avoid possible dehydration. • Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ)- 12.5-25 mg PO q day, max dose of 50mg/day. • ACE Inhibitors- SE include angioedema, agranulocytosis, leukopenia, hyperkalemia, and a dry cough. ACE inhibitors are not recommended for African Americans. Avoid salt substitute products and medications containing potassium while on ACE inhibitors. Monitor kidney levels (BUN, Cr, urinalysis etc..) • Lisinopril (Zestril)-initial dose 5 mg PO q day if not treated with a diuretic or 10 mg PO q day if treated with a diuretic, may be increased every 2 weeks, max dose 80 mg/day. • Captopril (Capoten)- initial dose is 12.5-25 mg PO bid, may be increased every 1-2 weeks, max dose of 450 mg/day. Must be taken 1 hour before meals. Hypertension Most commonly prescribed drugs cont’d. •ARBS- SE are similar to those of ACE Inhibitors including hyperkalemia, agranulocytosis, and leukopenia. ARBS are generally recommended for those who cannot tolerate ACE Inhibitors. •Losartan (Cozaar)- initial dose 25-50 mg PO q day, may increase every 2-4 weeks, max dose is 100mg/day. Losartan is a good antihypertensive to use in diabetics because it can treat hypertension as well as diabetic neuropathy. •Beta Blockers- SE include dizziness, headaches, tachycardia. Not first line agents – reserve for post-MI/CHF (James et al., 2014) Beta-blockers are not recommended for people with asthma or COPD. It is also recommended to avoid beta-blockers for those with diabetes because it may mask the signs of hypoglycemia. Beta-blockers would predictably be least effective in patients with low-renin, volume-dependent forms of essential hypertension, which are more commonly seen among African-Americans, older patients, and low renin patients, in whom diuretics and CCBs have been consistently shown to be more effective (Mann, 2017) •Carvedilol (Coreg)-initial dose 6.25 mg PO bid, may increase every 1-2wk to 12.5 mg PO bid, then 25 mg PO bid, Max dose 50 mg/day. It is recommended to give carvedilol with food. Hypertension Most commonly prescribed drugs cont’d. • Calcium Channel Blockers- SE include hypotension, headaches, pedal edema, and constipation. Avoid taking with grapefruit juice. Grapefruit juice is known to affect “the liver cytrochrome P450 enzyme system and interfere with drug metabolism” (Edmunds, & Mayhew, 2013) • Amlodipine (Norvasc)- initial dose is 5 mg PO q day; elderly patients should start at 2.5 mg PO q day; may adjust dose every 1-2 weeks; max dose is 10 mg/day. • Nifedapine (Nifedical XL) – initial dose is 30-60 mg ER (extended release) PO q day; may adjust dose every 7-14 days; max dose is 120 mg/day ER. This medication must be tapered gradually. ER pill must not be chewed, crushed, or cut. Hypertension Practice Barriers • Cultural barriers • Diet • Financial barriers • Access to care • Limited consultation time “may impair the ability to follow guidelines, resulting in poor BP control” (Khatib et al., 2014) • Insurance • Prescription coverage • Appropriate prescriptions • 21% of preventable admissions were attributed to other cardiovascular agents (Dreischulte, & Guthrie, 2012) • Capability barriers • Language barrier” is known to be an important risk factor for reduced access to medical care, poor health status, and adverse outcomes” (Kim, Kim, Paasche-Orlow, Rose, & Hanchate, 2017) • Lack of knowledge of blood pressure readings • Overall lack of understanding of hypertension Hypertension Optimal Outcomes • David is diagnosed with Stage II hypertention. • Non-pharmacologic interventions as well a pharmacologic interventions are recommended. David will have to start a healthier lifestyle by adhering to a low sodium diet and a weekly exercise routine. • A thiazide diuretic as well as an ACE Inhibitor will be prescribed. • Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg PO q day • Lisinopril 5 mg PO q day • David will follow up in 1 month to check his blood pressure and see if any dose adjustments are needed. Blood work and a urinalysis will be obtained to monitor for any kidney damage. The optimal outcome would be if David returned in one month with a blood pressure, a lower BMI, and no episodes of dizziness or headaches. References • Dreischulte, T., & Guthrie, B. (2012).
